The main idea behind this study is centered on two
objectives. First, conducting a study that has
never been done before exploring the patterns of
migration through surveying a sample population of
Latinos living and working in Tulsa, Oklahoma. And
second, documenting how this population of Latinos
has had an impact on the economic and cultural
landscape within certain parts of the city. To
begin, the study offers a brief historical review
of Mexican and Latino immigration to Tulsa.
Historically Tulsa has not been a traditional
destination city for Latino immigrants as the
history will show. Next, the book offers a review
of not only certain academic works that relate to
the study, but also
the methods employed to conduct the study. This
will give the reader an idea of how this study is
similar and also different in regards to other
studies of the like. The remaining portion of the
study will focus on the migration patterns for a
sample population of Latinos in Tulsa and how this
Latino population''s presence is evident within the
city.
